von Willebrand factor׳s (VWF) primary hemostatic responsibility is to deposit platelets at sites of vascular injury to prevent bleeding. This function is mediated by the interaction between the VWF A1 domain and the constitutively active platelet ...

Endovenous laser ablation of the great saphenous vein in patients with von willebrand disease
Introduction Patients with von Willebrand disease have a high risk of bleeding during the surgical treatment of varicose veins. Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) of the great saphenous vein (GSV) is a minimally invasive treatment for saphenofemoral ...

von Willebrand Disease Associated with Superficial Temporal Artery Pseudoaneurysm
We report on two patients with von Willebrand disease (vWD) that presented with superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysms following minor blunt trauma. We discuss the possible pathophysiological link between vWD and blood vessel abnormalities.

Identification and characterization of novel variations in platelet G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) genes in patients historically diagnosed with type 1 von Willebrand disease : GPCR variations in type 1 von Willebrand disease [PDF]
The clinical expression of type 1 von Willebrand disease may be modified by co-inheritance of other mild bleeding diatheses. We previously showed that mutations in the platelet P2Y12 ADP receptor gene (P2RY12) could contribute to the bleeding phenotype ...

Impaired megakaryocytopoiesis in type 2B von Willebrand disease
In this issue, Nurden and colleagues provide evidence that the severe thrombocytopenia found in a family with type 2B von Willebrand disease (VWD) is due also to impaired megakaryocytopoiesis, as shown both by changes in proteins involved in platelet ...
